Abstract
Thyroid hormones in blood serum are determined by admixing a blood serum sample with pepsin, incubating the sample for a period of time to allow pepsin to digest proteins having a thyroid hormone bound thereto and release the thyroid hormone from the proteins, adjusting the resulting mixture to a pH at which pepsin is inactive and assaying the mixture for the released thyroid hormone.
